I found a handy site for taking notes, but everything it says about the privacy of this one:

“Anonymous by default, no adverts. We offer a high level of privacy for both writers and readers. You don’t need to create an account to post something. There are no adverts on the entire page and we don’t use any social media scripts. You can rest assured that information about your activity on the site will not be used by advertising companies or social media.”

This is in the “About” section.

There is no information about what information the site collects about the user.

    Legally, it should mean no personally identifiable information is collected, since they are not accurately described. In practice, I’d expect at least IPs to be logged, but not used meaningfully. This is of course if the site services the EU.

      If the site services the EU and does not have a privacy policy it’s downright illegal according to the GDPR.

      Art. 14 GDPR, “Information to be provided where personal data have not been obtained from the data subject”:

      Where personal data have not been obtained from the data subject, the controller shall provide the data subject with the following information […] the identity and the contact details of the controller […] the purposes of the processing for which the personal data are intended […] where applicable, that the controller intends to transfer personal data to a recipient in a third country or international organisation …

        Is it just me or does this not make sense? It says you must declare the purposes of the processing for which personal data are intended, but this is under the section for when no personal data is collected. How does that work?
